Abstract excerpt
We have analysed haplotypes for four DNA polymorphisms, closely linked to the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene, in 82 Spanish families, in which the CF probands are either homozygous for non-delta F508 mutations or heterozygous for the delta F508 deletion and other CF mutations. The analysis provides genetic data for a new polymorphism for the closely linked marker pKM.19, which is very strongly associated with CF....
